Elog

This component is a Config object that represents a Bacnet Event Log object in its entirety. An Event Log object records BACnet event notifications with timestamps and other pertinent data for subsequent retrieval.

To access these properties, expand Drivers > BacnetAwsNetwork > BacnetAwsDevice > Config and double-click ELog.

In addition to the common properties (Status and Fault Cause), this component has these properties.

Property Value Description
Poll Frequency drop-down list (defaults to Normal) Selects among three rates (Fast, Normal and Slow) to determine how often to query the component for its value. The network’s Poll Service or Poll Scheduler defines these rates in hours, minutes and seconds. For example:

Fast may set polling frequency to every second.

Normal may set poll frequency to every five seconds.

Slow may set poll frequency to every 30 seconds.

This property applies to all proxy points.

Object Id drop-down list and number (from 0 to 4194302) Identifies each device and component by the type of entity (Object Id) combined with a unique Instance Number.

For devices (controllers, instruments, meters, etc.), Instance Number must be unique within the BACnet internetwork. For components (points, schedules, analog inputs, files, groups, multi state inputs, etc.), it must be unique within the device.

Object Name text in the format name.name.name.name (default includes the entire component path in the station using period (“/) delimiters between parent.child levels) Identifies a BACnet object. This name should be unique within this specific device.

For components, this name includes the entire component path under the station’s Config using period (.) delimiters between parent.child levels. This enforces (externally) the BACnet requirement for unique names for all objects in a device.

For a proxy point, this is the default name in the station.

You can shorten or edit Object Name, however, each Object Name must be unique among all server descriptors under the Export Table.

Object Type drop-down list of BACnet objects Reports the type of object.
Description text Adds information to more fully explain an object’s purpose, function or location.
 NOTE: After creation (adding) BACnet file descriptors, note that each descriptor also has additional properties accessible in its property sheet, along with those seen in the Add and Edit window.  
Enable true (default) or false Activates (true) and deactivates (false) use of the object (network, device, point, component, table, schedule, descriptor, etc.).
Stop When Full true or false (default) Controls what happens when the trend log exceeds its capacity.
Buffer Size number Configures the size of a buffer.
Record Count number Configures the number of records to store in the Trend Log.
Log Buffer number Configures the number of records to store in the Trend Log.
Notify Type (optional) Alarm (default) or Event Indicates if the notification is from an alarm or an event. This property applies if the source component has an alarm extension.
Notification Class text Specifies the notification class used for routing when handling and generating event notifications for this object.
Object Property Reference additional properties Contains the properties related to the referenced object.
Event State read-only Reports the status of the event.
